Donnington Motogp Admission Prices. Gulp.................

Is there no Sunday only option?

 

thats steep but silverstone was more i think...

 

It's a fair bit of cash, but the actual admission's still decent value I reckon. Considering going to a decent football game's gonna set you back £40 and that's only 90 minutes! So £95 for three days of top class bike action doesn't sound so bad....

Not that I think £40 for a footy game is reasonable, I should add...

Might take my old man for race day. We used to go regular before it went to Silverstone.

Mick..

 

Is that just to get in? (no seats, grandstands, etc)

 

Just priced Jerez at 149 euros for the top seated grandstand. Only 2 hr drive for me though.
Comparing it to football matches is spot-on. Its way out of reach for a working class dad with lad(s)

 

Don't forget parking £15/25?
Got a fine at Silverstone last year for parking in a field and no i didn't pay it.

 

The reason so many people drifted away from going to race meetings, in preference to watching it on the Telly!!

 

Regardless of the cost, I guarantee it will be rammed.

 

Does that mean I have to get a motorhome and a small child just to get a weekend ticket, outbloodyrageous........

I'm going to save my money ready for when the Moto GP goes to the circuit of Wales. I reckon if I put £1 away a year into a trust fund my kids should be able to attend the first meeting when they're in early retirement.

 

have you been to any events there before crank? is GA good viewing or do ya need to go grandstand (if there is any!)

 

Plenty of good viewing, the bank overlooking Craner Curves is good

 

like it. been to silverstone gp 3 times (weekend camping/boozing) and loved it. always bought a grandstand seat just to ensure a good view and have me lil radio/earpiece for commentary but most of the weekend i watch from all round the track and just seated come race time..

 

I was at Donnington as a guest of Honda (still don't own a Honda ) for the Superbikes when Colin Edwards was racing for them. While he was winning I was tootling around the perimeter fence on Colin's Castrol Honda pit bike. It was priceless when I bumped into some mates near Craner Curves - it went down soooo well

 

flash c... fair play to ya. its moments like that, that make life a lil bit better!

 

Went for a drinky with Suzy P too (and her sleazy boyfriend note: there may be other opinions of him) :Hilarious:

 

alright dont rub it in too much...
